Normal!! Doctors Update

I am finally normal!!! A normal weight that is.  I hit the mark this morning and I'm claiming it today.  Probably the first time in my entire life that I have not been atleast overweight.

I saw my surgeon today about the pain in my pouch.  He feels like it was all the tomato and spicy things I was eating.  It is much better now.  He said to continue taking the Prilosec for as long as I wanted to.  He was very happy with my progress.  He did say that if it got worse and I could not had problems with other foods to come back and he would do an endoscope.

I also saw my OB/GYN last week and she gave me estrogen and testosterone to use.  She said it had nothing to do with WLS, but is more related to my age.

Now I'm thinking that I might want to try to go about 5-7 pounds lower just to have a comfortable bounce back.  I'm leaving my goal at a normal weight!!

Thanks for all the help and well wishes I've received from this board.  I could not do this without you all!!
